A Clockwork Orange

As you can see in this picture, (please post it on the thread if you know how, as I have no clue), CSU's Pete Jokisch has chosen to dye his stick orange providing the illusion of pipes in the middle of the net confusing the shooter. Very bright young man.

It's real simple. Use the IMG tag. Its one of the options on the left side when making a new post. Right click the photo you wish to display and get the full web address (URL). Then place it inside the URL brackets. (You can test this, and other board features, out for yourself in the TEST DRIVE forum, FYI.)

Maybe it's just an illusion, but doesn't that stick seem a little short?

Goalies don't have to use goalie length shafts, its preference.
Unfortunately, I am an Apple user so I don't have the right click option on my Powerbook.

I played high school ball with Pete and he's always used a really short shaft. May have something to do with starting out as an attackman in high school and then moving to goalie sophomore year. Long live the family...

You can still figure out the picture's full web address and use the URL option to post a picture.

You should be able to "control-click" to get the same as a right mouse button. If that doesn't work, the open-apple + click.

Yes, I know. He is listed on the roster at 5'10", that is 70 inches total. Therefore the stick should be more than half the length of his body in order to be legal. Doesn't appear that way to me, but it could be just an optical illusion as I referred to before.

Look at the length of the stick compared to the height of the net. It looks to be at least 40 inches to me....

Everyone is worrying about the length of the stick or the color of it.....what about the abnormal shaped head that it attached to the top of the stick?!

I guess his plan has failed if they're getting them in the net! Maybe he should re-think his strategy??? :lol:

what about the 2 blue lines on his socks? i dont think they are matching the color scheme of the rest of the uniform.

does he have a cup on?

what about the goofy position his feet are in?

maybe he should get some tips from Alex Smith on positioning cuz he's giving away a lot of space on the other side of his net.
peace.
